“LAPOSTA” will be held for the third time next year after its first event in 2023. This time, it will be held throughout Tokyo Dome City from January 27th to February 2nd, 2025. The concept is “ADVENTURE OF HEARTS.” In addition to Tokyo Dome concerts featuring JO1, INI, DXTEEN, ME:I, and IS:SUE (3 concerts in total from January 31st to February 2nd), events produced by JO1 and INI members themselves, the event will take over the Tokyo Dome City area for a week.
In response to the announcement, Yonashiro shared his thoughts, “JO1 is approaching its fifth year, and at first I never imagined we would be able to hold such a big event, but LAPONE’s family has grown and I’m happy that we can all create something together. I feel like our dream of a live performance is getting bigger and bigger.”
He then declared, “I want to further enliven the Japanese entertainment industry with LAPONE.” He enthusiastically stated, “This is a chance to make my name known in many places both in Japan and overseas, so as I was told earlier, ‘You can go wild,’ I’m going to go wild.”
Then, Sato put his hands on his jacket and asked, “Can I go wild?”, grinning. Yonashiro quickly stopped Sato, who was trying to show off his muscles, and urged him, “Go wild in your performance.”
The press conference was attended by LAPONE Entertainment CEO Choi Shinhwa, NTT Docomo Smart Life Company Executive Officer and Entertainment Platform Department Head Sakurai Wakako, and Mitsui Fudosan Special Advisor Tokyo Dome Chairman and CEO Kitahara Yoshikazu.
